COUPLER CLOSURE TYPE  

    
8 PITCH COUPLERS

TJB Supplies three methods of mechanical connection for high-voltage cable couplers. The oldest method is the 8 pitch thread. This closure incorporates AXI-NUT and BLUNT-START, RELIEVED-THREAD design, all which contribute to easier operation and longer life.

The floating AXI-NUT allows the plug to be inserted into the socket,
the nut more easily started, and secures the coupler by compressing
the O-ring seal. The "BLUNT-START" and "RELIEVED-THREAD" 
features aid in preventing "FIRST-THREAD ROLLOVER," common 
in couplers not supplied with these features, which may result in jamming 
of the nut.
